What players say

Players praise its hand-drawn art and fluid combat in a short but satisfying Metroidvania. Reviews highlight the challenging yet fair difficulty and the variety of weapons, though some note animation lock and clunky dodge/parry. The fan service is a point of contention, with some finding it off-putting while others enjoy the overall experience.
